Hi everyone. Here are our new kittens Max and Marley which Elisabrat insisted I should share with you all. They are 9 weeks old and so much fun!
Elisabrat is my not so secret mug rug recipient and we are having a great time conversing. This is my first time doing a swap on this board and I got all excited at getting my recipients name I made contact not realising that staying "secret" was not optional. Well, as we both like to chat we are having a great time emailing from opposite sides of the world. It has been a week since I sent the parcel Elisabrat so it wont be far away from you now. I haven't recieved my rug mug yet but am getting very excited aniticipating it.

Hopefully I have attached the photo correctly and you can see my new fur babies

Oops, I might need to learn how to resize photos, I saw the tip on how to do it a few postings ago so will do that next time)

I have had my Florida resident mug rug partner on my mind since Sunday when I mailed the package. It's -40 today where I am and I can't help but think the mug rug is heading for better times with my partner.

That coffee mug rug is really cute Pam1111. Did you sew the rick-rack on after?

CAS I sewed it on when I had the three layers together. Put the rick rack between your two fabrics that are right sides together and leave half the rick rack stickout out, add your warm/natural, then sew all around but leave an opening to turn inside out. I saw one with rick rack on a previous mug rug swap and wanted to give it a try. Easy to do!!

Omg those are the second and third cutesf kitties ever. My zoey is the first. You know how it is, if i say someones cuter, ill have heck to pay. Its bad enough she has two slaves as itis...
anyway, they are cuties. Good luck with them.

I think this thread is the best one I have ever seen on the QB. I am so enjoying seeing all the MR"s and getting to know all of you better. I, too am tired of snow and cold. We shoveled today and should have used the snow blower but after we came inside, it began again so we will have a chance to use it tomorrow, especially after the city plows go by and dump all the street snow in our driveways. Cuts a lot into my quilting time, so I am not happy with winter, either. I don't mind snow but I want some clear, sunny days in between so we can have a break. Ok, I will quit complaining. My days are better than many of yours. I am glad I am not a bookkeeper/account. Momma_K...what you wrote gives me a headache just thinking about. I am still waiting to receive my MR and it was fun to send my practice ones to other folks here. Now I will go look at the pictures of allof them. thanks Nelco for setting up a page. Lebrat..(Linda) did you notice how I used the bird scrappy you sent me? :-) Thanks ever so much!
